Looking at the selection;OH MY GIRATINA, YOU EXPECT ME TO CHOOSE?!?No, I'm just kidding. But it is a tough choice though.

Uh... Infernape / Squirtle

I always loved Infernape, from when Ash got it as a Monferno. There's just something about it... Also, I like Infernape in general, biasedly. HANG IN THERE, THIS ONE'S FOR LEAVANNY. / I don't like Blastoise or Squirtle, and even though this one has glasses, this is no exception.

Ok so it's clear that Pikachu wins immunity for the next round. Even though Noctowl got an immunity vote, it ended up with a vote difference of -1, tying it with Bulbasaur and Squirtle. However since Noctowl did get two elimination votes while Bulbasaur and Squirtle only got 1, Noctowl is eliminated. finishes in 8th place

We are down to our final 7!4 Kanto Pokemon: 2 Johto Pokemon: 1 Sinnoh Pokemon:

With immune, you must vote off one of the following Pokemon for immunity and one for elimination

Alright so get voting everyone and don't forget explanations!Immunity: Bulbasaur. Stayed in Ash's party longer than any other Pokemon in the original series (the first five seasons) aside from, of course, Pikachu. Bulbasaur has been there for Ash time and time again and if another Pokemon along with Charizard was given a reintroduction in the Unova (or now Kalos since Unova is 1 episode away from finishing), Bulbasaur would deserve it.Elimination: Totodile. Honestly it was tough but as much as I appreciated your moments of hard fought battles as well as comic relief, it's about time you go. You still got pretty far though

I'm sorry Charizard, Pikachu, Bayleef. I just like Infernape better. / Squirtle. Still don't like. He never stuck out to me beyond having glasses and generally being less apreciated than the other Pokemon Ash had.

Win, Infernape, for Leavanny's sake!

*Gasp!* You've never seen Totodile before? He had the cutest little dance! He's the only pokemon that Ash didn't catch in a Pokeball (I think…), but a Lure Ball instead, and he was almost Misty's. That was the battle where Togepi beat Pikachu! (sorta). So does this mean that you don't really know how horrifyingly powerful the Unown have the potential to be?

…Anyway, that said, I second your vote.

Charizard - Totodile

GhostPony, think of it like this. Charizard can still fly, so he's, kinda sorta, a birdie. As for Totodile, as much as I adore him, he's come far enough, and there are still others have farther yet to go.

Just a question, but when it gets down to the final two, will a hidden poll be opened to allow for uninfluenced voting?

I think I remember that episode, but I don't remember any Unown in there.

Oh yeah…I sorta went off on a tangent there. Sorry 'bout that. I was thinking of Totodile dancing in a 'war zone' in the third movie.

Sorry about that, I was just yanking your chain a bit. Wow, you must've been about four or five when The Spell of the Unown came out. No wonder you don't remember him. God, I feel old. I can't even remember if I was in the third or the fourth grade when that was in theaters…okay, maybe I don't feel that old.

Sorry, I'm rambling. I tend to ramble when I'm tired and stressed, so basically every night for the last two weeks of every semester are spent rambling whenever I try to write something…

Last round, it came really close to Squirtle getting eliminated... He must be in the top three. / OH MY GOSH A PIKACHU! THAT'S NOT CLICHE AT ALL! No... You've made it far enough, Pika. Now thou must die. (No offense)

With Pikachu immune, that leaves these four options. Vote for one of them to have immunity and one of them to be eliminated

Alright get voting!

My voteImmunity Elimination

Bulbasaur has consistently been there for Ash and has just been pretty cool over the years. One of my favorites.Charizard for elimination because of his overratedness and fans tend to see all of its strengths and none of its weaknesses, like the fact he cost Ash the Indigo League. So he can go now. This is good enough for him.

Ah, but remember, Charizard can fly, so he is in a sense, a birdie. (Plus, remember, he left because the last birdie was voted off, so please don't scare him away… =))

Also, Pikachu has immunity, and so cannot be voted out this round.

On to my vote:

Charizard - Bayleef

*sigh* Why pick on Charizard now? Yes, he lost Ash the Indigo League, and that is, admittedly, a large point against him, but that disobedience was overcome! That weakness, that flaw, it's been overcome and replaced with respect! Why, at the very next (full) Championship, Charizard helped Ash to finally defeat Gary, a long time rival, and against his own weakness! Traditionally speaking, if Pikachu wasn't already his starter, then Charizard would be, just by the definition of that battle! Ash didn't even use Pikachu there.

If that's not enough reason, then let's not forget that, if not for Charizard, Ash would have been killed by the Unown-born Entei? Ash didn't even have Charizard with him at the time, and he was still loyal enough that when he saw that Ash was in trouble, he still came to help, and Ash would have fallen to his death if not for that loyalty, no 'if', 'and's, or 'but's about it. That's more than overrated fan opinion or belief in a Godlike-Mega-power that's not really there, that's actual loyalty and care, and something that would not have happened immediately following the Indigo League.

As for Bayleef…I wish I could skip this part, I really do, because I like all of those who remain, but that won't actually work, so…I vote for Bayleef's elimination, not because I want to, but because I need to, and because, although Bayleef's 'crush' on Ash was cute, at this point, I have to go with actual relationships with Ash, as opposed to jumping on the bandwagon to get the less viable pokemon out. So, while his relationship with her is there, it doesn't stand out as strongly as the relationships to the others in my mind, with the possible exception to Squirtle.

Now I see the strong points. The respect he now has for Ash (A respect many do not share), does seem to overcome the disobedience and flaws eventually. / Squirtle does have an interesting background story, and the glasses are nice, but I feel as if he never particularly connected with Ash. Just as well, he's rather my least favorite out of those left. Yes, even with the yellow rat (with whom I point out Ash wouldn't be Ash without, Pony) included.

Oh, and I suppose I shall limitedly accept Charizard as a "birdie"... limitedly.
